Corfu is also called “the Green Island” or even “Pearl of the Ionian Sea” because of its comparatively lush vegetation. The island has a lot to offer: beautiful beaches, idyllic coves and lush green landscape. People suffering from a fear of flying, of which I should know something about: The Ioannis Kapodistrias airport of Corfu in Greece is among the ten most dangerous airports in the world, with a hill to the right and surrounded by water on the left. In addition to this, a few meters past the runway lies the main road, where during arrivals and departures traffic lights stop vehicles either side of the runway. But do not worry, only experienced pilots are permitted to fly to this airport.

The trip to Kassiopi is worth it if only for the small, secluded bays with crystal clear water. The rocky shore around the bays offer many colorful fish refuge, which can be observed well with a snorkel.
